Dean: Republicans want to “kill the bill and kill the president”
posted at 6:00 pm on August 18, 2009 by Allahpundit
How to turn a poor choice of words into a smear in five seconds:
The Republicans, they have no interest in this Bill. They’re using the 1994 playbook. Let’s kill the bill and kill the president — or, kill the president’s term. Although there are sort of angry people out there I get very nervous about this stuff. I don’t like it at all.
He means “kill the president” in the way DeMint meant his “Waterloo” comment, I think — i.e. that failure here will cripple The One politically. He wouldn’t have corrected himself so quickly if he hadn’t: When Dean-o wants to go for the throat, he doesn’t hold back. But then … why the segue about nuts who really do mean harm to Obama? I guess this is the next phase in the left’s strategy to demonize Republican opposition to The One: Now, not only is it racist to be angry about his programs, it’s downright threatening. Coming soon to MSNBC primetime. Click the image to watch.

He meant left to die on an abortion clinic table.
pedestrian on August 18, 2009 at 6:02 PM
OH MY GOD! DEAN SAID HE WANTS TO KILL THE PRESIDENT! TERRORIST! RACIST! BOYCOTT!
Oh,wait. That would be the Libtard reaction if Glenn Beck said the very same thing…
cannonball on August 18, 2009 at 6:02 PM
HYAAAAAAAH!
MadisonConservative on August 18, 2009 at 6:02 PM
Coming soon: We would love to allow dissent, but it’s simply too threatening to the life of the president. That’s why we needed to enact legislation that shuts down dissent and locks up vocal dissenters. See, it’s all about maintaining order and protecting innocent people.
amerpundit on August 18, 2009 at 6:02 PM
YYYEEEEAAARRRRRRGGGH!
Apologetic California on August 18, 2009 at 6:02 PM
he is such a dumbass. I pity any patient this psychopath checks for a hernia.
gsherin on August 18, 2009 at 6:03 PM
If this weren’t such a serious subject, this would be a fine example of an Epic Self-beclowning.
Chainsaw56 on August 18, 2009 at 6:03 PM
He seems to be suggesting that is a bad thing.
Fed45 on August 18, 2009 at 6:03 PM
Desperate
Terrye on August 18, 2009 at 6:03 PM
It’s all about the left delegitimizing, and eventually criminalizing, dissent.
Rebar on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
It’s unfathomable that this guy was once considered a viable Presidential candidate.
oh wait, obama, kerry, gore, edwards…..what am I saying?
notagool on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
Traitor, Criminal….
stlpatriot on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
What an ASS
MCW on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
They must have slept through the last eight years. They think Obama has it bad? They have no credibility.
TXMomof3 on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
This is why he was so effective muzzled and working behind the scenes instead of running from talkie to talkie and Michael Steele should remain muzzled working behind the scenes and not running from talkie to talkie.
Marcus on August 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
Dean is such a cocky little sh*t….I wish he would just go away and let Obambi fail as soon as possible
MCW on August 18, 2009 at 6:05 PM
Show of hands: anyone think Dean’s position has been consistent over the years? I mean, does he always feel this way regardless of who is in the White House? No, I didn’t think so.
Fed45 on August 18, 2009 at 6:05 PM
I agree with Dean, the GOP wants to, or least should want to, kill the bill and kill the President’s first term. Both things are good for the country.
WashJeff on August 18, 2009 at 6:06 PM
Howard Dean is the leader of the Democratic Party. Pass it on.
Jim Treacher on August 18, 2009 at 6:06 PM
If he had been RNC chair I would have registered independent.
Dr. ZhivBlago on August 18, 2009 at 6:06 PM
I am still waiting for some democrat to actually explain to me how a government run insurance option.
1. Decreases costs
2. Creates healthy competition
3. Increases services
4. Does not negatively impact medical research
I hear them say that a public option will do these things, but they don’t explain how.
I guess they’re too busy riding unicorns and chasing leprechauns.
Dr.Gills on August 18, 2009 at 6:06 PM
These people are completely insane.
BetseyRoss on August 18, 2009 at 6:06 PM
Ummmm, let’s see here: the Dems have the White House, the House, and a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. How is it that the GOP is able to do any damage to The Messiah at all?
Now, who’s responsible for all this? Oh yeah, those Blue Dogs . . . Democrats that is. What an arse for blaming others for his own failure to get his own house in order.
ieplaya on August 18, 2009 at 6:07 PM
Well his mouth sunk his campaign, might as well help sink Obamacare….
Rogue on August 18, 2009 at 6:08 PM
I bet you get nervous Howard. One woman on Facebook was able to disembowel your entire party.
Keep talkin’ chump.
darwin on August 18, 2009 at 6:08 PM
As president, Obama = Dean on steroids.
TXUS on August 18, 2009 at 6:08 PM
They’ve used every word to demonize dissenters, from un-american to wanting to kill the president. What else do they got left?
FontanaConservative on August 18, 2009 at 6:08 PM
Howard Dean – FBI trained Stooge?
Attorney: FBI trained NJ blogger to incite others
Chainsaw56 on August 18, 2009 at 6:09 PM
This Dean person is thinking about the death of the President/seeing him killed?? Is he safe to go around in public? Someone ought to report him to the WH. He’s clearly having angry and violent thoughts.
JiangxiDad on August 18, 2009 at 6:09 PM
Jackass.
ICBM on August 18, 2009 at 6:10 PM
Violence and force.

They’ll bring the knife while we bring the gun to this fight.
FontanaConservative on August 18, 2009 at 6:11 PM
Bible thumping, gun clinging, evil-mongering, swastika brandishing, racist, mobster, AARP quitting, grannies are pretty scary when they get all riled up.
No wonder Dean is worried. Their knitting needles are really pointy and who says they aren’t going to knit some targets for someone’s back.
Lily on August 18, 2009 at 6:11 PM
Sooo glad DeanScream didn’t get near The Button. YEEEEARGHHH!…World War 3

Let’s kill the bill and kill the president — or, kill the president’s term.
Must be the Bill is his number one priority.
fourdeucer on August 18, 2009 at 6:13 PM
Dean is an admitted racist who hates white people.
malclave on August 18, 2009 at 6:14 PM
I’ll bet he read it straight off the DNC Talking Points!!

Although, I am glad I have his Scream on my phone…Cheers me up just by playing it…
Battlecruiser-operational on August 18, 2009 at 6:15 PM
Howard Dean is such an asshole! He needs to keep his stupid mouth shut!
Eyvonne on August 18, 2009 at 6:15 PM
And Obama is his spokesperson, who will be in BIG TROUBLE if he doesn’t get Congress to include the public option.
misslizzi on August 18, 2009 at 6:15 PM
Without the follow up sentence this would be pretty easy to excuse as a slip of the tongue.
BadgerHawk on August 18, 2009 at 6:16 PM
Dr. Dean would be well advised to give himself a lobotomy.
TXUS on August 18, 2009 at 6:16 PM
the people don’t want it you moronic meathead
rjoco1 on August 18, 2009 at 6:16 PM
An embarrassment even to Vermont. Dean probably thinks you get maple syrup by pulling the tits on maple trees.
whitetop on August 18, 2009 at 6:17 PM
Does Howie Dean have a job?
Is he on Welfare?
Elizabetty on August 18, 2009 at 6:18 PM
We have to kill the Democrat majority in the political sense so they are forced to play ball with ‘we the people’. Otherwise they will ram everything through and turn this country into just another tin-pot European Socialist Republic.
Amazing that they feel entitled to railroad half the country and snooker the rest.
Holger on August 18, 2009 at 6:19 PM
To think these leftists actually think we’re going to voluntarily give up our healthcare to the likes of Dean. LOL!
elduende on August 18, 2009 at 6:19 PM
Dr. Dean would reply that the people just don’t know what is good for them.
myrenovations on August 18, 2009 at 6:20 PM
So the only conceivable reason to oppose ObamaCare, is because you wish to hurt Barry politically?
And to think, there are actually people who believe that liberals are capable of rational thought.
MarkTheGreat on August 18, 2009 at 6:21 PM
What’s killing them is the fear of not getting reelected, keep it up.
the_nile on August 18, 2009 at 6:21 PM
Don’t forget, in 2004 candidate Howie “Jet Screamer” Dean said that he wanted “to take back my country” from the evil Rush Limbaugh.
Del Dolemonte on August 18, 2009 at 6:22 PM
Can you imagine this asshat as POTUS?
1921 C DRUM on August 18, 2009 at 6:22 PM
We want the President to Fail Dr. Dean, not be subject to his own DEATH PANEL’s when he gets lung cancer.
Death Panel cure for Obama’s lung cancer??? “Go get Nicorette”
portlandon on August 18, 2009 at 6:22 PM
They’re making a good example of why they shouldn’t control health care.
the_nile on August 18, 2009 at 6:23 PM
Howard Dean cuddles a racist protester that wants to kill the president.
Key West Reader on August 18, 2009 at 6:23 PM
Howard Dean is the very PICTURE of effete elitism. Supercilious and arrogant, he is a completely self-absorbed one-way street. No wonder the Dems got rid of him at the earliest opportunity as a presidential candidate. His own party thought he had aluminum foil headgear basket case potential. He needs a lot more servitude, though.
YYYEEEEEE-HAAHHH

Mr. Obama could solve most of his problems is he would outsource his media operations to Hugo Chavez.

: Republicans want to “kill the bill and kill the president”is still a tool.29Victor on August 18, 2009 at 6:29 PM
He seems to be suggesting that is a bad thing.
Fed45 on August 18, 2009 at 6:03 PM
You mean, killing the president would NOT be a bad thing, Fed45?
They’ll bring the knife while we bring the gun to this fight.
FontanaConservative on August 18, 2009 at 6:11 PM
Uh huh. So, who you gonna shoot with that big old
penisgun of yours, Fontana?We want the President to Fail Dr. Dean, not be subject to his own DEATH PANEL’s when he gets lung cancer.
Death Panel cure for Obama’s lung cancer??? “Go get Nicorette”
portlandon on August 18, 2009 at 6:22 PM
And yet another moron falls for the “Death Panel” lie. Rush’s owners are sure getting their money’s worth from YOU guys…
bschmalfeldt on August 18, 2009 at 6:30 PM
I wouldn’t entirely rule it out, to be honest with you. This administration has been running full bore to enact it’s socialist agenda – in such a demonstrably hamfisted manner – like nothing I have ever seen in my 50 odd years of consciously observing American politics. If they do start locking up dissenters, then keep the seat at the local jails warm fellas for I’ll be there.
Also, Dean is wrong, we don’t want to “kill the president,” but we do want to kill his socialist agenda.
Rush was right, I, too, do not want this president’s agenda to succeed.
Joe Pyne on August 18, 2009 at 6:30 PM
So, from today’s commentors, we learn it WOULDN’T be a bad thing to kill the president, and that stupid people still believe in “Death Panels.”
Limbaugh’s owners are sure getting their money’s worth from YOU guys.

joeindc44 on August 18, 2009 at 6:35 PM
Pin the tail on the donkey…. Dean you are a moron but hang in, you are turning out to be our best friend. Hee Haw…
highninside on August 18, 2009 at 6:35 PM
Not only are we going to kill New Hampshirites, we’re going to kill South Carolinians, and Oklahomans, and Arizonans, and North Dakotans, and New Mexicans, and Californians, and Texans, and New Yorkers, and South Dakotans, and Oregonians, and Washingtonians, and Michiganders, and then we’re going to Washington, DC, and take out the White House! YEEEEEEEAAAAAGGGHHHH!

Leftists are the ones always taking about murdering President Bush. Look up the song The Man I Killed on iTunes by NOFX. TERRIBLE!
jawkneemusic on August 18, 2009 at 6:36 PM
Hey dork … I think you forgot about the last eight years. Protests with people carrying a dead Bush in effigy, calls to kill Bush, assassination movies, books about assassinating Bush, calls for soldiers to kill their officers, soldiers hung and burned in effigy.
Look buddy … you guys are the kings of the hill when it comes to downright vileness and violence. Even on our best days we could never top the left.
Go take a nap.
darwin on August 18, 2009 at 6:37 PM
I’m getting really tired of people telling me how smart Obama is. How the hell do they know? Did Obama show Dean his SAT scores? an IQ test perhaps?
Listen, I realize there are smart people around, and most people are smart enough to realize who the smart people are, even if they don’t “prove” it.
Apparantly, most people consider Obama to be smart, and if that’s the case, then I must not be bright enough to see what everybody else is seeing.
I want proof. Is Obama really that smart?
ConservativeTony on August 18, 2009 at 6:37 PM

Afrolib on August 18, 2009 at 6:39 PM
I don’t have all the facts, but Howard Dean was behaving stupidly…
Democrats are so dumb! Howard Dean made the statement in the hopes that it would stick; reminds me of the stupider “BarackAmerica” by Biden.
People are way too smart to fall for the stupid tatics of liberals.
TN Mom on August 18, 2009 at 6:40 PM
Go easy on the lefties. It must hurt to see Hopenchange crumbling before their very eyes.

Where’s David Frum? Isn’t this the kind of behavior that gives him the vapors?
Cody1991 on August 18, 2009 at 6:42 PM
Men like Obama and Dean are not smart, but they are fiendishly clever.
They are the “Bernie Madoffs” of politics.
Joe Pyne on August 18, 2009 at 6:42 PM
bschmalfeldt, = bullshit sham left field
Why pull something that doesn’t exist?
More people believed Bush phoned in the 9/11.

darwin on August 18, 2009 at 6:44 PM
Dean: Republicans want to “kill the bill and kill the president”
Hey Dumbo-Dean…..if you want to replace “kill” with retire, count me in on all counts. Now go to your room and flag yourself—-idiot.
Rovin on August 18, 2009 at 6:44 PM
This is the first time in many years the Dems have held both Houses of Congress with veto-proof majorities and the White House. I’ll never forget the clear dismay on Rather’s face when the Republicans took Congress in ’94. Ever since, the Dems have been nuts.
In at least 15 years they’ve had limited power and, when out of power, they get freaky and say things like “Republicans want to kick Grandma out of the nursing home.” Now, back in power, they’re still nuts and have become dangerous. This is payback time for America, for more than a decade of their being denied unchecked power.
Liam on August 18, 2009 at 6:45 PM
Dean: ‘I do not agree with a word that you say,
butand I willdefend to thesmear you to deathyour rightif you try to say it.’.
FIFY
dont taze me bro on August 18, 2009 at 6:45 PM
Oh, oppossing the Democrats is always good thing regardless. But if they ram everything down the national throat then consider it the end of Chapter titled American Productivity and Prosperity also probably the death of American Exceptionalism.
The only way is killing the Democrats politically to the point they can’t ram doctrinaire New Liberalism down the National Throat to upset the National Stomach. Though the oppossite orfice is equally applicable.
Holger on August 18, 2009 at 6:45 PM
RNC should immediately file a suit against Dean for slander. Just do it.
DaMav on August 18, 2009 at 6:46 PM
Deans basically a “truther”too.When that poll came out awhile ago,showing (about)35% of dems believed Bush had something to do with 9/11,(25% “werent sure”),Dean agreed with the poll,and said we should investigate more.
theTarCzar on August 18, 2009 at 6:46 PM
He got thru the maze on the back of the fruit loops box. That’s how we know. ;)
capejasmine on August 18, 2009 at 6:47 PM
For Democrats, Dean is the Canary in the Coal Mine: When he starts singing they know they’re f+cked
“f+cked” means losing control of the House and maybe even the Senate next year, among other disasters
the Fun is just getting started: This beast ( the Democrat Party and its moonbat contingents ) needs to die slowly and painfully
Janos Hunyadi on August 18, 2009 at 6:47 PM
I know it has been said a million times, but not yet by me…so here goes….
You MORON! The dems have a majority in the house, a filibuster proof majority in the senate, and a Marxist scum bag as president who is willing to sign every piece of socialist crap that comes down the pipe. How in goodness name do the reps factor into it at all? They are powerless.
csdeven on August 18, 2009 at 6:48 PM
Hope and change:
2 more words we won’t be able to use for a long, long time.
The left ruins everything.
ConservativeTony on August 18, 2009 at 6:49 PM
Yes, they are seeing they’re dreams of a Statist utopia crumble before their very eyes – All that control over people’s lives slipping away….
… it’s ….

Sorry, Laughing at them too much to type coherently.

Enough about your assassination fantasies, Dr. Dean. Tell us about your relationship with your father.

ConservativeTony on August 18, 2009 at 6:51 PM
Meanwhile,the clownish socialist is running around like a chicken with its head cut off only a sixth of the way into his four year term. Five-sixths yet to go, folks!
Good old predictable CNN will undoubtably have another anti-Bush special on Abu Gharib or something, as if anyone cares anymore.
They’re simply making the Bush years look more like Camelot every day..
TexasJew on August 18, 2009 at 6:52 PM
Thanks for a Good laugh at the end of the day.
Maybe next time you should copy and paste the talking points instead of retyping them.
